Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1548: Two Major News Items

A month later, not far from the moon gate of the Moon Radiance Sect, a few disciples discovered a corpse.

On the waist of the corpse hung an identity token, which clearly belonged to a disciple of the Moon Radiance Sect, and it was an Inner Sect disciple’s identity token.

In an instant, the entire Moon Radiance Sect was in an uproar.

Killing a disciple of the Moon Radiance Sect near its vicinity, especially an Inner Sect disciple, was undoubtedly a blatant slap in the face to the Moon Radiance Sect... Who could be so bold?!

While the Moon Radiance Sect was in turmoil over the death of this Inner Sect disciple,

A shocking message followed.

"The killed Inner Sect disciple witnessed Elder Abu Dunn’s death, which is why he met with such misfortune!"

No one knew where this message came from, nor who spread it, but in just a few days, it swept through the entire Moon Radiance Sect.

For a moment, there was yet another uproar within the Moon Radiance Sect.

Elder Abu Dunn, dead?

The first to be shocked were the named disciples in Abu Dunn’s residence; upon learning of his death, they were all dumbfounded.

"No wonder the Sect Leader came to ask us before if Elder Abu Dunn explained his whereabouts... Maybe, at that time, the Sect Leader already knew something happened to Elder Abu Dunn."

The group of named disciples in Abu Dunn’s residence exchanged glances, suddenly guessing many things.

At the same time, many Inner Sect elders who usually interacted with Abu Dunn also visited his residence to confirm if this matter was true.

When they learned that Abu Dunn had left for a long time and had not returned, they realized that the message was not baseless.

With confirmation from these Inner Sect elders, it wasn’t long before the whole Moon Radiance Sect verified the occurrence regarding Abu Dunn.

Moon Radiance Sect’s forbidden area.

Bang!!

A teacup was smashed hard on the ground, shattering into pieces.

The person who smashed the cup was an elder, whose face was as grim as could be.

Moments later, the elder left his residence and went to a nearby residence.

"Sect Leader, didn’t you say no one in the Sect knew where Abu Dunn went? Why is there now a message saying an Inner Sect disciple witnessed Abu Dunn’s death and was silenced?"

The elder went to find none other than the Moon Radiance Sect Leader, Remy Mitchell.

Seeing the elder questioning him, Remy didn’t appear surprised. Instead, he smiled wryly, "Uncle Master, that message is totally baseless... I’ve investigated for several days and found no clue as to where the message came from or who spread it."

"There’s definitely someone stirring trouble behind this."

Remy asserted confidently.

"I don’t care who is stirring trouble, I must get to the bottom of this... If the Sect Leader can’t do it, I’ll investigate personally! These old bones haven’t moved in a long time; maybe it’s a good opportunity to get active."

The elder said in a deep voice.

"Rest assured, Uncle Master Jimenez, I will definitely find out the cause of Abu Dunn’s death as soon as possible."

Remy vowed sincerely, "Uncle Master Jimenez, just wait for the good news."

He truly feared the elder getting involved personally; he knew the elder’s temper well, and for the sake of Abu Dunn, an illegitimate son, there was almost nothing the elder wouldn’t do.

"Sect Leader, my patience is limited."

After giving Remy a deep look, the elder finally turned and left.

After the elder departed, Remy’s respectful expression disappeared, replaced by gloom.

Although the elder was his senior, Remy was after all the Sect Leader of the Moon Radiance Sect; the elder’s threatening attitude irked him, making him feel his authority as a sect leader was challenged.

However, considering the elder’s strength, which was no less than his own, his discontent vanished.

Moreover, the elder was the Guardian Deity of their Moon Radiance Sect, after all.

The elder’s matters were his responsibility.

"I hope you’ve hidden deep enough... Otherwise, once you are found, I will make sure you have no place to die!"

Thinking of the person who spread the news about Abu Dunn’s death, Remy’s face was very unpleasant.

"So far, of those knowing of Abu Dunn’s death, aside from myself and Uncle Master Jimenez, there’s only Evander Mullins... Other than those, only the person who killed Abu Dunn would know he is dead."

As the Sect Leader, Remy’s mind was naturally meticulous.

So his first suspect quickly became ’Evander Mullins’.

It had to be said, Remy was truly smart; the first suspect he targeted was actually the ’mastermind’ who spread the message.

However, as the mastermind, Evander Mullins would not easily expose any weaknesses.

Thus, even though Remy Mitchell attempted to probe Evander Mullins several times in the following days, he gained nothing.

"It’s time to release another explosive piece of news."

Seeing Remy Mitchell leave his mansion again, a sinister smile appeared on Evander Mullins’ lips, "Wyatt Barnes, Trevor Baillie... prepare to receive the gift I’m sending your way!"

"With this news, I don’t believe you, Wyatt Barnes, can remain calm."

Muttering to himself, Evander Mullins’s eyes flashed with sharp light.

Just as the entire Moon Radiance Sect started to calm down from the uproar over Abu Dunn’s death, another piece of news spread, shocking the entire Sect once more.

"Elder Abu Dunn left that day to avenge his direct disciple, ’Sail Fenning.’ Who would have thought, the unexpected happened, and not only did Elder Abu Dunn fail to avenge, but he also lost his life!"

This was the message circulating throughout the Moon Radiance Sect again.

No one knew where the message came from, nor who spread it.

But like the previous piece of news, it was astonishing and caused the entire Moon Radiance Sect to boil over.

"So, Sail Fenning was Elder Abu Dunn’s direct disciple!"

"No wonder he was only an outer sect disciple but had a holy weapon inscribed with ’two-star Saint Markings.’ No wonder, as a former powerhouse on the Earth List, he caught the attention of many outer sect elders, yet showed no intention of apprenticing under them."

At this moment, many outer sect disciples’ doubts were also resolved.

The things they had puzzled over in the past, it turned out, had reasons.

"Avenge Sail Fenning... I remember, the person who killed Sail Fenning was Wyatt Barnes, right?"

Soon, someone exclaimed in shock.

"That’s right! The person who killed Sail Fenning was indeed Senior Brother Wyatt Barnes. But that battle was actually initiated by Sail Fenning with a Life and Death Duel challenge letter, inviting Senior Brother Wyatt Barnes to a life-and-death duel... so even if he died, he only had himself to blame for his lack of skill, not Senior Brother Wyatt Barnes, right?"

"If Elder Abu Dunn really went to seek revenge on Senior Brother Wyatt Barnes, then he truly had no demeanor of an inner sect elder."

"Exactly! Once a Life and Death Duel challenge is issued, fate is up to the heavens... This is a rule passed down by our Moon Radiance Sect. Even as an inner sect elder, he must observe it."

"I heard Senior Brother Wyatt Barnes left the Sect for a while earlier... Could it be that Elder Abu Dunn was killed after he left?"

"The person who spread that message, what were they trying to suggest? Could they be implying that Senior Brother Wyatt Barnes killed Elder Abu Dunn?"

"Ridiculous! Even if Senior Brother Wyatt Barnes is now a martial artist who has entered the Saint Realm, it’s almost impossible for him to kill Elder Abu Dunn... Elder Abu Dunn was a great master at the stage of perfection in the Saint Realm!"

"Elder Abu Dunn, being one of the top three powerhouses among the inner sect elders, was not only a great master at the stage of perfection in the Saint Realm but was at its pinnacle... Trying to kill him without at least half-step Saint Realm strength is almost impossible."

"Don’t forget, behind Senior Brother Wyatt Barnes is Elder Trevor Baillie... Elder Trevor Baillie’s strength could rival even half-step Saint Realm experts."

"Are you suggesting that Elder Baillie killed Elder Abu Dunn?"

...

Unlike the previous message, this piece of news, involving ’Wyatt Barnes,’ who had recently garnered much attention in the Moon Radiance Sect, continued to escalate.

Eventually, many people even suspected that Abu Dunn was slain at the hands of Trevor Baillie.

"It’s just unfortunate that when Trevor Baillie left my mansion, he happened to run into the Sect Leader... Otherwise, even the Sect Leader would likely have suspected him."

Though pleased with the effect his message caused, Evander Mullins felt some regret.

"However, even if the Sect Leader knows it couldn’t be Trevor Baillie who killed Abu Dunn, this matter won’t end quickly... Maybe Trevor Baillie hired some strong fighters to protect Wyatt Barnes on his journey home, who then killed Abu Dunn?"

Evander Mullins chuckled sinisterly: "In any case, Wyatt Barnes shouldn’t think he can easily disentangle himself from this matter in a short time... let’s hope this will trouble him enough to take a break."

Thinking this far, Evander Mullins’s eyes flickered with a sharp gleam.

Herein lay his true goal!

Meanwhile, within the forbidden grounds of the Moon Radiance Sect, unrest continued to brew. free𝑤ebnovel.com

"Uncle Master Jimenez, I am willing to swear a Thunder Punishment oath, willing to bet my life that when Elder Abu Dunn’s Soul Bead shattered, I was the first to investigate and personally saw Elder Baillie."

Remy Mitchell earnestly assured the elderly figure before him: "If Elder Abu Dunn were killed by Elder Baillie, he couldn’t have returned so quickly... Besides, to my knowledge, Elder Baillie was at Evander Mullins’ mansion for quite a long time before that."

"So, while Elder Abu Dunn was murdered, Elder Baillie was at Evander Mullins’ mansion and couldn’t have gone elsewhere to kill Elder Abu Dunn."

Now, Remy Mitchell desperately wished to execute the person spreading the rumors multiple times, who seemed to thrive on chaos.

"Perhaps he didn’t do it himself. Maybe he found the strong fighters protecting that Wyatt Barnes to do it instead?"

The elderly man’s eyes narrowed, a cold glint flashing as he spoke icily: "In any case, I must confront him face to face!"

"Uncle Master Jimenez, you... put me in a tough position."

Upon hearing the elderly man’s words, Remy Mitchell couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
